C++ Developer (Modernization & Security Compliance)

Quick Facts

• Role: C++ Developer focused on modernization and security compliance

• Project: Modernization of C++ platforms for high-tech electron microscopes for Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) readiness

Description

You will modernize long-developed C++ platforms to create a more secure, modern, and sustainable technological foundation in line with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA). The work is driven by systematic software analysis using SBOM, dependency scanning, SAST/DAST, and related tools, producing technical modernization requirements such as dependency upgrades, refactoring, and code adjustments for newer component versions. You will also integrate long-separated product branches back into the main development line and handle breaking changes and integration issues.

Responsibilities

• Refactor and modernize existing C++ code

• Upgrade or replace older libraries and dependencies

• Address technical findings from SBOM, SAST/DAST, and dependency analyses

• Integrate product-specific branches back into trunk/mainline and resolve breaking changes

• Stabilize, debug, and test changes before CRA-related product-specific releases

• Work in a C++ development environment with product-specific toolchain and ecosystem

Requirements

• Very good C++17 skills

• Git proficiency

• Debugging experience

• Ability to understand and safely change a complex existing system

• 3+ years of C++ experience

• Knowledge of modern C++ standards

• Experience with design patterns and/or SOLID principles

• Plus (advantage): larger C++ codebases, refactoring, dependency upgrades, Git branching/merging, CI/CD, or static/security analysis

• Cybersecurity experience: not mandatory

Benefits

• Technology modernization of complex high-tech products (not classic maintenance)

• Blend of C++ refactoring, dependency modernization, branch integration, and new cybersecurity-related requirements

• Hybrid work mode with office attendance about 3x per week
